THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW.
American Continent, and its center of attraction will
be the vast and magnificent resources of Mexico,
Central, and South America, while its chief study will
be how best to promote a profitable interchange of those
resources for our manufactured goods. It requires
no great foresight to predict as one of the inevitable
results, the establishment of steamship lines, the
building of railroads, and the large and rapid de-
velopment of trade in all the countries of Central and
South America. None of these countries can there-
fore afford to be absent from this great commei'cial
congress of American nations.
The Management will provide a thorough system
of Police and Fire protection, but it is distinctly un-
derstood that the Management will not be respon-
sible in any manner whatever, for any loss by rob-
bery or embezzlement, fire or accident of any kind,
or for any loss or damage, whatever may be the
cause or the extent of the damage done.
No charge will be made for space to exhibitors, but
a uniform entry fee of Ten Dollars will be charged to
each exhibitor, except those lrom foreign countries,
for each separate article entered for competition, and
where entry is made for exhibition only one fee of
Ten Dollars will cover the entire exhibit.

The undersigned having been placed in charge of
the interests of the Exposition in the Middle States,
an office has been opened at 234 Broadway (opposite
the Post Office), in New York city, where detailed
information may be obtained, and blank applications
for space will be distributed.
Correspondence from business men and intending
exhibitors is respectfully invited, and will receive
prompt attention.

Managing Director of the Middle States.

The Board of Managers of the North, Central, and
South American Exposition are gentlemen of extra-
ordinary business qualifications and fully competent
to successfully grapple with the complications which
ordinarily arise in such ventures. It was owing to
very bad management which made the World's Cen-
tennial and Cotton Exposition a financial failure last
year.
There seems to be no doubt but what there has
already been $500,000 subscribed, and the stock prin-
cipally held by the merchants and bankers of New
Orleans and the railways tributary to that city. These
people if necessary will readily subscribe more, which
is an assurance that the Exposition will not be hamp-
ered by lack of funds as was the case last year.
We believe with ample capital and the good man-
agement that is back of this Exposition will make it
a success, and advise the manufacturers in our trade
to look well into the advantages to be derived by ex-
hibiting their goods. There has been no time since
the war that the South has looked so prosperous as
at the present. The prospect is that the crops will
be larger than ever before, and with a ready market
for these products, the South will have money,which
